McCullough V Martinez.

Pocket Rocket Wayne McCullough is to come out of Two and a Quarter years of Boxing hibernation to fight Kiko Martinez this December.
Martinez in his last outing demolished another Irish boxer in the (limp) form of Bernard Dunne to win the EBU Title.
However this title will not be on the line as McCullough being situated in Las Vegas, USA has not fought any European fighters in the past two years nor boxed at all in the last 10 months.(The 2 requirements to contest the strap.)
McCullough will receive $50000 or €35380 for te fight which will be held in King's hall in Belfast or possibly London.

Don't like the sound of this. Because McCullough has an amazing granite chin he'll end-up taking an absolute shellacking off the younger man.

That was my initial reaction. But god no, should anyone have the ability to endure and overcome it would be Wayne

Probably be on Setanta, and miss the last 3 rounds because of connection difficulties.

RTE have been covering a lot of Duddy and Dunne fights lately so theres a chance they might snatch this. If so, there'll be a live feed from the RTE website which shows all the undercard and is spot on coverage.

Haven't heard anything since, so i suspect we may be disappointed and have to go to Setanta for this fight.
However, the Duddy fight on December 8th will surely be on RTE

You really like the RTE coverage? I watched the feeds for a couple of Dunne fights a while ago, and I really wasn't that impressed with the punditry....Jim Rock? It is a bit inward-looking, but then again I'm not complaining as I get to see more fights than I would without the feed, so happy days.

Well it's free and since i live in Ireland it's what everybody watches....

Umm...as for the analysis...Well i don't think it's great, in fact i greatly disagree with a lot of it but on the other hand, well;
